Taking the whole family to Beijing is an exciting prospect, but now you've come to the all-important question of where to house your loved ones while on vacation. Not all hotels are kid-friendly and in fact many smaller hotels in Beijing are downright unacceptable for families. These suggestions offer expected amenities and have child-friendly decor and staff.

AC Embassy Hotel is a simple option with nice decor that doesn't have too many breakable objects or one-of-a-kind items your child might accidentally destroy. Likewise, the room service, in house restaurant and laundry service may come in handy.

Courtyard by Marriott, the Holiday Inn and the Intercontinental Beijing and Hilton all offer western-standard hotels with the expected additions of restaurants, bars, laundry and room service-- all of which will be useful with a room full of kids. Meanwhile, with after-hours adult options you and your loved one can play while the children sleep.

The remaining options are western-standard specific yet perhaps more suitable to older children or children capable of safely staying on their own. These hotels have enough to offer on-site that you can trust your children to run to the restaurant alone, or play in the gym without supervision, giving you time to enjoy the spa or bar services. meanwhile, the concierge can help with transportation and entertainment planning, giving you one less thing to worry about while abroad!
